Mooroopna will be looking to replicate some of the good football it played against Shepparton during the middle part of last week’s game.
Coach Dale Osborne will have the task of getting his boys up for what is arguably the toughest challenge in football at present – taking on the red hot reigning premier.
Some are saying that this Bomber team is actually better than the one that won last year’s flag.
Nicholas Coulstock, Lachlan Smith, Kyle Mueller, Aaron Hayes, Jordan Williams and Kayne Pettifer were all strong performers in the demolition of the Demons while Trent Freer, Jonathan Odgers, Lachlan Devine, Dean Smith, Clint Riley and Ajak Dang were the Cats’ best in the loss to the Bears.

The spotlight is once again on Mooroopna as it tries desperately to turnaround a run of outs when it travels to face Kyabram.
Mooroopna has lost its past three matches by a combined total of less than 10 goals, so it could have easily been undefeated coming into this contest.
Coach Jenni McCluskey will look to replicate all the good things her girls have done in the three losses to United, Shepparton Swans and Shepparton.
One player who will be keen to recapture some her early season form will be Monique Lenehan-Moustafa.
The reigning premier was ruthless in brushing aside the previously undefeated United last weekend.
It clearly shows that the Belinda Lees-led unit has lost none of its hunger to achieve greatness as a group.
The Bombers hope to regain Holly Butler after she missed last weekend while Jemma Osborne and Sharni Clark made the most of their elevation to the team.
They will be both looking to impress the coach in a bid to keep the pressure on for starting seven spots in the line-up.
